[ale] NAS recommendations

[Raj Wurttemberg]

I have QNAP's 871's in a few offices and they work great. My only issue with
QNAP is the cost. I'm going to do a test implementation with Synology and
use their mirror feature for DR.

Any ALEr Words of Wisdom wrt desktop NAS?
Looking for something appropriate for, but not limited to, photography.
Some years ago Drobo demoed at (I think) AUUG.  (Might've been ALE.) Was
kinda nifty for the time but I'm sure things have improved since.
Synology?  QNAP?
Build something myself?  JBOD?
Looks like they all running Linux inside these days.
Rackmount ones look lots more expensive.
Ideas?  What to look for?  Stay away from?  Thanks, Ken
